Step length calculator

Anyone got one....? Fed up getting my calculator out all the time.

You know...in step edit, if your tempo is, say, 120, what value does your note duration have to be to be 1 bar exactly long........(good for note off)


Cheers !

I don't think this place has a step edit calculator but you seem like the kind of guy that will appreciate these calculators any way so hear you go.

in step edit the note duration is the same regardless of tempo..

24= 1/4 beat
96= 1 beat
384= 1 bar
768 = 2 bars
1536= 4 bars
3072 = 8 bars etc...

^yeah that's true. lol

or, how about...
16th note
8th note
1/4 note
1/2 note
whole note

yeah except you can't edit note info in step edit by a time sig denominator...

Er...yeah....sheepish look....its independant of tempo of course !

Thanks all, that java calculator is really really good Upright, cheers !

Cod..thanks, nice quick reference.

Happy bunny...........cheers

i hear ya, just sayin its just simple math though... cause who talks in ticks when explaining the position of a kick in a arrangement, ya know?
divide or multiply...

ticks | notes
3 = 32nd
6 = 16th
12 = 8th
24 = 1/4
48 = 1/2
96 = whole

is this really right? im confused... if a 1/4 note = 24 ticks... how can 1 bar = 384... and another note, 1 beat is equal to 1/4 note when in traditional 4/4

something is weird here...
